GVK Power and Infrastructure (GVK Power) announced the successful completion of the sale of its residual stake of 10% in Bangalore International Airport (BIAL), held through its subsidiary, Bangalore Airport Infrastructure Developers (BAIDPL) to Fairfax India Holdings Corporation (Fairfax India) for a consideration of Rs 1290 crore (approximately $200 million).

In March 2017, GVK closed an agreement which was signed during March 2016 with Fairfax India to sell a 33% stake in BIAL. It had retained a 10% stake and the management of BIAL. Subsequently, in June 2017, GVK announced its decision to conclude the sale of this 10% residual stake to Fairfax India, subject to necessary consents and approvals.

Dr. G V K Reddy, Founder Chairman & Managing Director of GVK while speaking on the development said that since deleveraging is currently the management's top priority, it decided to part ways with BIAL. However, the Airports sector will continue to be a core focus area for GVK, he said.

Reddy added that the management will now focus on Mumbai as well as the Navi Mumbai airport for which the company has won the bid and also on selectively evaluating privatization opportunities. Capacity optimization and real estate development will now be the priority areas for the existing Mumbai airport, added Dr. Reddy.
